The Application of High Angular Resolution Stellar Interferometry to the Study of Single Objects in the Visual Region of the Spectrum
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 02 August 2016
Abstract
A brief review of existing angular diameter measurements of single objects is given. Potential astronomical programmes for high angular resolution stellar interferometry in the visual region of the spectrum are discussed with particular regard to the sensitivity, resolution, and accuracy required for significant astrophysical results to be obtained. This discussion is used as a basis for suggesting the minimum requirements for future high angular resolution stellar interferometers.
